Again this is cautious and equivocal language, because researchers do not want to come right out an say
"Ivermectin is a miracle drug!"[/QUOTE
and you know this to be true how??? what stuff did you see that showed researchers have said this or anything similar. funny, I have a hard time sleeping this past night so I went on you tube(free) and found all sorts of pro and anti vax stuff. Not once did an anti vax cite say the vax is killing and maiming people in huge numbers.
But a medical doctor whose father recovered after being given ivermectin practically said this: "Dr. Ng said her father's recovery "is beyond our expectations," per a Nov. 29 news release. She said, "Our family especially thanks Judge Paul Fullerton. Without him, we couldn’t bring my father home and couldn’t see him smile at us again."
do you really want to use this as evidence of how miraculous Ivermectin is?
From your article you cite:
"Sun Ng, 71, was released from the hospital Nov. 27, according to a news release from Mauck & Baker, LLC, the law firm that represented the family's case. Ng was hospitalized with coronavirus on Oct. 14 and placed on a ventilator four days later."
He was in the hospital 44 days! Most patients that get well do so earlier than that.
"Joseph Monahan, a lawyer who represents Edward Hospital, previously contended
Ng had shown improvement prior to being given ivermectin. "Monahan also said the hospital was unable to confirm the contents of the drug given because the doctor obtained it online from India," Daily Herald reported.
Ivermectin is not FDA-approved to treat coronavirus in humans. On the FDA's website, the organization outlines
potential dangers of using ivermectin."
No testing, no analysis, no studying no nothing, just his daughter saying that ivermectin cured him. she did not even start giving him it until after three weeks of being hospitalized.

This study was done in India and in May they dropped the use of ivermectin because it is only effective if the patient is asymptomatic! Once symptoms show ivermectin had neglible ersults.
She and her lawyer had to go to court to fight the hospital which was sabotaging ivermectin. And this is only one of many such cases. And since this report was from MSN Fake News, they attacked ivermectin in the same article! So why don't you do your own research instead of playing devil's advocate literally?
Oh I have done my research and whole lots more this past night. they were not sabotaging ivermectin, they simply were following the law! Ivermewctin is still only allowed in the US for covid patients in clinical studies!. I guess you could care less if doctors lose their license for a drug that has shown after further studies to fail.
So now you also are accusing a fellow believer of being in league with the devil? where do you all learn how to vomit such filth? All you have shown is one, two ro three individuals. And teh studies were all done near or year ago or more.
And ivermectin alone does nothing in peer reviewed clinical trials. It needs to be used with large doses of zinc to inhibit the growth of covid cells, only if the patient is infected but asymptomatic. Same with HCQ, it needs to be used in asymptomatic patients with doxycycline .
YOu present incinclusive anecdotal evidence, hearsay and old studies that have since been revised and you accuse me of being lax in my research?
I have posted numerous studies, facts figures and results from Vaers that were corrected with the clinical data on patients ( the vaers numbers in the graph are raw uncorrected numbers, like if someone dies with covid they call it a covid death).
I wish ivermectin, HCQ or Remdesivir were wonder drugs for covid. but so far the most optimistic studies are only spotty at best or using too small a patient cohort, nor having a control group, or doing blind studies with a placebo.
But now that almost 5,000,000,000 doses of vaccines have been administered, they have a huge number to report. And since the world hit past the 1,000,000,000 people vaccinated (2,500,000,000 are now vaxxed) they have real hard empirical data to report.
For every one vaccinated person hospitalized with severe symptoms, 19 unvaxxed are hospitalized with sever symptoms.
for every one death of a vaccinated person, is also about 20 unvaccinated who die.
The vaccines as reported by the manufacturers will not stop you from getting infected, nor stop you from infecting others, but it will anywhere from 85-95% be effective in stopping you from getting seriously ill. And now with over 315,000,000 doses administered in America , those numbers are still holding!
Me I hope the Merck antiviral pill will work. It shows promise to prevent the virus from taking hold!
Even Joe Rogan who is a strong anti vaxxer and took ivermectin still ended up hospitalized with severe covid symptoms!
That’s why his apparent endorsement of a medicine unproven as an effective treatment for Covid-19 is concerning. Though ivermectin can be prescribed to target parasitic infections in humans, the US Food and Drug Administration
has not approved the drug for use against the coronavirus. In large doses, the FDA warns, it can be dangerous, with side effects including “nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hypotension (low blood pressure), allergic reactions (itching and hives), dizziness, ataxia (problems with balance), seizures, coma and even death”.
In laboratory research, they found the dosage needed for ivermectinn to cross the risk to benefit ratio is over 25X the dosage used for parasites! That large amount will cause the side effects.
